Tuesday, January 13, 1998 Published at 09:21 GMT World: Europe Third night of teenage rioting in Polish town ![]()
There's been a third night of rioting in the Polish town of Slupsk by teenagers protesting at the death of a thirteen-year-old basketball fan.
The protesters say the dead boy had been beaten-up by police.
Reports from Poland say the Slupsk town centre is again calm, but littered with burned-out rubbish bins and broken glass.
In the latest violence, which came despite a government inquiry into the protesters' allegations, teenagers wrecked the flat of a police officer who has been charged in connection with the death.
Police say they made ninety arrests.
The Polish Prime Minister, Jerzy Buzek, said he's been stunned by the clashes.
